British Theatre and the Great War, 1914-1919 : New Perspectives
(Palgrave Macmillan, 2015-08-03) -
British trade unionism in the 1980s reassessed. Are recurring assumptions about union membership and strikes flawed?
(2023-07-07)This article questions the hypothesis, put forward by several historians and IR academics, that the 1980s decline in British union membership and strike frequency, was driven by major industrial defeats, a cultural shift ... -
Broad Embedded Logistic Regression Classifier for Prediction of Air Pressure Systems Failure
(2023-02-16)In recent years, the latest maintenance modelling techniques that adopt the data-based method, such as machine learning (ML), have brought about a broad range of useful applications. One of the major challenges in the ... -
A broad-scale spatial analysis of the environmental benefits of fertiliser closed periods implemented under the Nitrates Directive in Europe
(2021-12-01)Nutrient pollution from agriculture has been an ongoing challenge for decades, contributing to numerous negative environmental impacts. In the European Union policies have been developed to address nutrient pollution, ... -
The Broadbalk long-term experiment at Rothamsted : what has it told us about weeds?
(2004)The Broadbalk experiment was started in 1843 to investigate the relative importance of different plant nutrients (N, P, K, Na, Mg) on grain yield of winter wheat. Weeds were controlled initially by hand hoeing and fallowing, ... -
Broadband observations of the naked-eye gamma-ray burst GRB 080319B
(2008)Long duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) release copious amounts of energy across the entire electromagnetic spectrum, and so provide a window into the process of black hole formation from the collapse of a massive star. Over ... -
Broadband Spectral Modeling of the Extreme Gigahertz-Peaked Spectrum Radio Source PKS B0008-421
(2015-08-20)We present broadband observations and spectral modeling of PKS B0008-421, and identify it as an extreme gigahertz-peaked spectrum (GPS) source. PKS B0008-421 is characterized by the steepest known spectral slope below the ... -
Broadening assessment criteria and student awareness
(2013-12-01)We all know the need for society and designers to create a balanced or sustainable future. That is to meet demands of all stakeholders, whether they fall into the economic arena, environmental concerns or a cultural or ... -
Broadening options for long-term dialysis in the elderly (BOLDE) : differences in quality of life on peritoneal dialysis compared to haemodialysis for older patients
(2010)Background. Health-related quality of life (QOL) is an important outcome for older people who are often on dialysis for life. Little is, however, known about differences in QOL on haemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis ... -
Broadening public participation in systematic reviews: a case example involving young people in two configurative reviews
(2015-06-22)BACKGROUND: Arguments supporting the involvement of users in research have even more weight when involving the public in systematic reviews of research. We aimed to explore the potential for public involvement in systematic ... -
Broadening Responsibilities: Consideration Of The Potential To Broaden The Role Of Uniformed Fire Service Employees
(National Joint Council for Local Authority Fire and Rescue Services, 2017-01-31)What is this report about? This report, commissioned by the National Joint Council for Local Authority Fire and Rescue Services (NJC), aims to identify what impact, if any, firefighters can have on the delivery of emergency ... -
de Broglie wavelength reduction for a multiphoton wavepacket
(2002)An experiment is proposed that permits the observation of the reduced de Broglie wavelengths of two and four-photon wave packets using present technology. It is suggested to use a Mach-Zehnder setup and feed both input ... -
The Broom's Barn sugar beet growth model and its adaptation to soils with varied available water content
(2005-09)The important environmental variables that determine sugar beet growth and yield are: temperature, radiation, rainfall, potential evapotranspiration and soil available water capacity (AWC). It is important to understand ... -
Brown dwarf census with the Dark Energy Survey year 3 data and the thin disc scale height of early L types
(2019-09-05)In this paper we present a catalogue of 11 745 brown dwarfs with spectral types ranging from L0 to T9, photometrically classified using data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) year 3 release matched to the Vista Hemisphere ... -
Brown dwarf companions to white dwarfs
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2011)Brown dwarf companions to white dwarfs are rare, but recent infra-red surveys are slowly revealing examples. We present new observations of the post-common envelope binary WD0137-349, which reveals the effects of irradiation ... -
BROWN DWARF DISKS AT AGES OF 5-10 Myr
(2009-11-10)We present Spitzer/IRAC and MIPS 24 mu m observations for 28 brown dwarfs in the Upper Scorpius (UppSco) region. We find a disk fraction of 10.7%-(+ 8.7%)(3.3%) . One object shows a small excess at 24 mu m but none at ...
